    Good on you, love your enthusiasm, nice close at $3.57, couple of weeks ago I thought $3.40 would be the high before the Ex date. Have enough of these at around 35% of portfolio total, one of 3 stocks im currently holding, I kinda like the sound of a third time's three, nice and simple.

    Had somebody say 15% growth is a bit optimistic for the whole year

    OK let's run with 7.5% --- in retail still pretty amazing

    Only problem with that assumption is that H2 sales will be less or about the same as H2 last year

    With the current momentum that this well managed company has is that really likely?

    Yes 5 bucks on the card next year I reckon

    I havnt bought a single t-shirt from hallensteins this summer, nothing appealing for me, pretty bland offerings so far. So my t-shirt gauge says be careful.

    Your gauge is broken.

    They need a new gauge too and a new window. A while back I posted an analysis of first seven weeks and next ten weeks sales and the most recent ten weeks sales are up a whopping 22% so momentum is actually building ! In addition anyone who's actually not locked up inside in solitary confinement in a prison might have noticed that we're actually having the makings of a good summer this year for the first time in about 7 years, (I know we had a good one seven years ago because I repainted my kennel that summer and we haven't had as good a one since). No need to discount end of season stock at the end of this summer, stock will probably sell out no problem and they might have trouble getting enough stock to sell !

    Momentum is clearly building across the Tasman, Percy are you going to the annual meeting to ask about Australian growth ?

    Gee Roger why would you say that, is it just a ramp hoping no one does any research? A simple check would show that the discounts never stop and in retail the start of a season is when the sales for the current season are in full swing. Especially leading into the festive period. https://www.glassons.com (check the front page first and then click on 'Sales') Luckily everything they sell has such outrageous markups that the sales prices are still making good profits.

    As any old retailer will tell you, there's a big difference between start of the season sales, and getting rid of end of season stock.
    One is profitable,the other is not.

    Very accurate for me but im big on t-shirts and i know what i like.Have bought many over the years from hallensteins, nothing so far this summer. Im hopeful they will get some cool designs in, i check weekly, you have to as they cleverly introduce new stuff continuously.

    Just like Briscoes aye, always a sale, but as long as punters think they are getting a bargin, that's all that matters. PS- Had a look at that front page you mentioned and had a wee blush..
